Chocolate Pots of Gold

Happy Monday! Did you have a nice weekend? We finally received some much-needed rain here in Southern California … snow in the mountains too! It’s March already and St. Patrick’s Day is around the corner. Last Friday, I shared my Rainbow Cronuts with you and promised Chocolate Pots of Gold.

Can you tell what I used? I thought that it was very appropriate that you would find a donut pot of gold at the end of a cronut rainbow 😉

These were fun to make and were very popular with everyone, especially with the kids in the neighborhood! Using store-bought donuts, chocolate and Sixlets made the project especially fast and easy!

This is what you will need …

Mini chocolate coated donuts

Chocolate candy coating (such as CandiQuik)

Mini marshmallows

Gold Sixlets (1-4.5 ounce jar for about 12 pots of gold)

Gold Disco Dust

Melt chocolate according to package directions and place in a squeeze bottle or pastry bag. Make 4 chocolate dots (legs) on top of donut.

Turn donut over, use a some chocolate to attach a mini marshmallow in the center of donut. Pipe a chocolate handle and a rim (do it twice if necessary) around the flat portion of the donut.

Happy St. Patty’s day to you! Great little pots of gold. I thought these pots of gold were so much bigger until I read your ingredient list, like HUGE. I am glad they are just little treat bites-just perfect. Take care, BAM
